Day 60: Pokhara

Today was our earliest day yet; we were on our bikes before the sun fully rose. The beginning of the drive was so amazing. The sun was coming up over the mountain range and the sky was perfectly clear. Unfortunately, my GoPro was not charged (Bob Marley hostel barely had electricity), so I was only able to capture a few photos when we pulled over on the side of the road. Each turn was more amazing than the next, unfortunately, we didn't have the time to make all the stops.

While we are new at driving motorcycles, our time spent on tough roads and even tougher traffic has caught us up to speed very fast. We were able to make it to Pokhara just after nightfall (around 13-14 hours of driving). Needless to say, we were exhausted. It felt like I had just been punched in the butt for the past half day.

Not much was really done today except for our drive. We stuck to a strict schedule that only allowed for short breaks to eat snacks and rest. Much needed sleep!
